Hi Deepak,

Actually, linux/kdebug.h is specific to Andrew's tree and has not been
merged into Linus's tree. Since you seem to be already doing the port
from 2.6.21-rc6-mm1 to 2.6.21, can you send me your patches once they
are ready ? I would be glad to publish them.

Currently, it is mostly my marker work, include/*/local.h,
include/*/atomic.h, include/*/system.h and my marker patches which must
be copied from a -mm kernel into the mainline kernel, since they are in
Andrew's tree but not in the mainline. The rest of the LTTng patches
should not suffer from too much conflicts between mainline and -mm.

The best approach is probably to apply the patches in the following
order :

Get a 2.6.21 tree
Get the set of patches from Andrew, select the atomic ops, local atomic
ops and markers patches from the series file.
Get the latest LTTng for -mm tree.

Regards,

Mathieu
